Performance Profiling That's Easy-to-Use and Efficient - AQtime Pro

AQtime Pro includes an intuitive and fully-customizable user interface that helps you perform performance profiling tasks easier. AQtime’s UI includes panels, toolbars and menus:

AQtime Panels

Each panel serves a certain purpose and makes performance profiling easy:

• Summary. The Summary panel shows brief performance profiling results. It clearly pinpoints the sections of code in your application that require optimization. This frees you from searching for these sections manually. View screenshot
• Explorer and Report. Performance profiling results are organized into categories and threads. The Explorer panel lists the result sets, categories and threads. The Report panel shows results for the selected category or thread. View screenshot

The Report panel displays the main results. Most other panels are specialized extensions of the Report panel. They update their data when you select different routines in the Report panel (the panels are also updated when you select a routine in one of the panels):

• Call Graph displays the sequence of function calls or references between objects. View screenshot
• Call Tree shows the hierarchy of calls for the selected routine, but use other visual representations than Call Graph. View screenshot
• Editor shows the source code for the current routine. View screenshot
• Disassembler shows binary code for the currently selected routine. View screenshot
• Details displays profiling results that cannot fit in Report. View screenshot

The PE Reader panel displays information about the profiled application and modules linked to it. By using this panel you can easily check which functions each module exports and imports and what dynamic link libraries your application needs to launch successfully. View screenshot

Customizing Panels

The size and layout of AQtime panels are not fixed. You can change the panel size by dragging the separator between the panels. The most important point about handling panels is how they can be moved around (or docked). Docking allows you to build and customize your workspace for each particular task you are interested in. This means that the entire work area can be reconfigured at will. View screenshot

You can also adjust the column layout in the panel at your desire, you can:

• Add and hide columns (View)
• Sort rows (View)
• Group data (View)
• Filter records on-the-fly (View)
• Easily view summary values (View)
• And more

Toolbars and Menus

AQtime menus and toolbars are similar to those of Microsoft Word, Visual Studio or Embarcadero RAD Studio. You change the toolbar and panel layout the same way you would do this in Microsoft Word or Excel. (View screenshot)

Keyboard Shortcuts

Like anything else in AQtime’s UI, keyboard shortcuts can be customized as well. You can define your own shortcuts or select one of the predefined key mapping schemes: MS Visual Studio IDE or Borland IDE. (View screenshot)

Whatever performance profiling task you are trying to implement using AQtime, you have all the features to streamline its user interface to reach your goals with optimum efficiency.
